Happy Inauguration Day!

No matter what your political views, you have to admit that today is a historic day in America. I made some festive cupcakes to celebrate the day. No new recipes here. I followed the yellow cake and chocolate frosting recipes that I used when I sent cupcakes to some friends and family members last year.
I also made these festive funfetti by adding a tablespoon each of red and blue sprinkles to the batter before baking them.

This sounds so amazing!
Mouth watering 🙂 I love cannolis and I am sure my husband and I would finish this ice cream off quick!!

I bet you would love it. And I’m sure you could find a bakery who would sell you cannoli shells. I couldn’t find anything in Cincinnati and I didn’t have time to make any, so I had to go with store bought…
Genius! I love the idea of this ice cream, I would hoard this for myself!!! Looks absolutely sinful!

Hehe, I know what you mean. Sometimes I hide desserts in the freezer and don’t tell Hubby where they went 😉
It was so delicious. I might try and make it soon.
oh man, i am so trying this!!! I love the filing of cannolis but could take or leave the shell, so I think this would be perfect 🙂

I’m sure you would love this – you could even leave out the shell pieces if you wanted to.
